Week 5 fantasy wide receiver rankings: Top WR streamers, starts

The wide receiver corps has been hit with a number of injuries to key players already this season. Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Ladd McConkey ... The list seemingly just

keeps growing.

Fortunately, a couple of ailing stars have been able to return relatively quickly. The Rams' Puca Nacua missed two games with a hip injury, but was back to his usual productive self in Week 4 with nine catches for 125 yards and a rushing touchdown.

Also back in action, the Texans' Nico Collins, who also missed two games with a hamstring injury. He couldn't help Houston snap its winless streak, but he did have seven receptions for 118 yards and two scores.

Hopefully, Nacua and Collins will start a new trend.
